‘It is another made to order fall day,’ Chet said. ‘This is the time when I want to read write and think great thoughts,’ Chet continued. ‘Great people have great thoughts,’ Chet mused. ‘President Kennedy said, ‘Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country,’ Chet quoted. ‘Not how much money can I make,’ Chet observed. ‘I would love to ask JFK what he would have done had he not been assassinated,’ Chet proclaimed. ‘Many in that day believed he was destined for greatness,’ Chet said softly. ‘We believed he was cut down by the assassins bullet before he could achieve his mission, Chet noted. ‘Does your antique floor length magic mirror still work,’ Chet asked Neva J?
‘Yes, let us go to November 21, 1963 and talk with him in Texas,’ Neva J suggested. ‘We will go to the Hotel Texas Suite 850 in Ft. Worth where he and the First Lady were resting,’ Neva J said. ‘Jackie accompanied him to Dallas although she did not enjoy campaigning,’ Neva J continued. ‘President Kennedy had been cautioned to not go to Dallas but felt he must for the upcoming Presidential Election,’ Neva J explained. ‘Kennedy had been well received by the crowds gathered to cheer for him and shake hands with the First Lady,’ Neva J mentioned.
‘Mr. President, there are three people from the future who would like a few minutes with you to hear your plans for the remainder of your term,’ Secret Service Agent Cliff Hill said. ‘They say they are from 2026 and they cannot reveal anything about the future,’ Agent Hill noted. ‘They look like regular folks,’ Agent Hill smiled.
‘Welcome come in,’ President Kennedy said. ‘Are you with a news outlet in Ft. Worth,’ Kennedy asked? ‘Jackie and I have visited with several today,’ Kennedy smiled his winning smile. ‘If you are from the future what is it like 53 years from now,’ Kennedy gently inquired. ‘As for my plans for the remainder of my term and hopefully as second term I want to end the war in Vietnam,’ Kennedy said. ‘We must learn to live in peace…’we all breathe the same air we all love our children’, Kennedy said with confidence. ‘Some of my advisors are lying to me and when I return to D.C. I am going to deal with their removal and replacement,’ Kennedy winked. ‘Remember the Bay of Pigs…what a fiasco,’ Kennedy said with emphasis. ‘We are a great country and are unworthy of lies by politicians,’ Kennedy leaned back in his special rocking chair that he had brought to Texas from the Oval Office due to his bad back. ‘I have seen first hand what war can do and I do not want it…we can be better,’ Kennedy noted with calm assurance. ‘Tell me a little about the future,’ Kennedy laughed.
‘Do not go to Dallas…you will be assassinated…Lyndon will become President…the War in Vietnam will continue for years…thousands will die,’ Neva J said.
‘Our trip to Texas changed everything,’ Jane said. ‘Trump did not become President,’ Jane continued. ‘We did not lose confidence in our Presidents or government truth became common and service essential to politics,’ Jane danced on one foot and then the other. ‘JFK is our longest living President at 109 and he still sails,’ Jane laughed.
